by a storage system volume replication functionality.
Snapshot Software used to duplicate volumes in a single storage system. Snapshot
duplicates differential data in a data pool. The secondary volume is a virtual
volume that consists of the primary volume and the differential data. By duplicating
only the differential data, Snapshot can copy data in a very short time as well
as reduce the capacity required of the volume used for duplication. For more
information, see the Snapshot manuals.
Snapshot Group A group of pairs created using Snapshot/Fast Snap. Use of a snapshot group
allows the same operation to be applied to more than one pair at a time. Like
device groups, snapshot groups are managed in the storage system rather than
the configuration definition file.
system An external storage system connected to a host.
summary pair

copy pairs, Replication Manager allows users to quickly check copy pair statuses.
Replication Manager determines the summary copy pair status for each copy

the resource. For more information, refer to the HP XP7 Command View Advanced
Edition User Guide.

machine
A virtual storage system that you create on a HP XP7 system that allows multiple
resource groups to be treated as a single device. For more information, refer to
the HP XP7 Command View Advanced Edition User Guide.
volume A collective name for the logical devices (LDEVs) and logical units (LUs) that are
created in a storage system.

Application Agent.
